The council's approval of the budget alongside continuation of the camera contracts indicates the city prioritized both fiscal management and ongoing surveillance infrastructure. [Verify: whether the budget increases, decreases, or maintains Flock contract spending compared to the prior year.] Details regarding the deficit's causes, how the budget addresses it, and the scope of the camera deployment remain unclear from available reporting [verify: budget document line items and the camera contract details in municipal records].
